    You know, I’ve been given three hours on Tuesday nights, in which to do whatever I please. Of course, that involves playing a whole lot of music. But I do tend to get motivated, aka, carried away. When planning for my shows, I usually hand select close to 80 songs. Trouble is, I’ve never gotten…

    First show of September. That means fall, changing leaves, cooler temperatures, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and pumpkin spice everything. Right? Well, um, not so fast there. This is Sacramento, and we have a Reverse Groundhog Day thing going on. The groundhog saw his shadow, so we’ll be getting six more weeks of summer. Okay, that really isn’t…

    I just had a weird, fun idea, but I should have started it about 71 episodes ago. It came to me because I took a look at this week’s playlist, and noticed that there were 56 tracks on this show, and that this happened to be episode #71 of my show. So here’s the thought–I…

    Halfway through 2019. Yes, I realize that first sentence-like structure has no verb, no action word. But verb or no verb, the music we play on Woody Radio is chock full of action. This show was no exception. Although we didn’t explicitly bill it as such, I guess that it’s our Independence Day show, as…

    “Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m sixty-four?” Yes, this is my 64th show on Woody Radio. And I’m hoping you still need me–or at least the music that I play. But even if you don’t, I’ll come back next week for another try. Speaking of Woody Radio–this was the…

    Ok, let’s cut right to the chase. We are 60 episodes old now. The management at Woody Radio continues to leave me unsupervised on Tuesday nights, and I run roughshod all over the airwaves. I play weird segues. I mix sounds together that aren’t traditionally heard on radio. I play bands with funny names (if…

    This was my so-called triumphant return to radio! I’d been on vacation for over a week, and off the air for a couple of weeks. Yes, I was observing radio silence. But I couldn’t wait to get back on the air. As the old saying goes, I was tanned, rested and ready. (Trivia question: where…

    I missed you guys. I hadn’t done a show here at Woody Radio in 12 days–since a week before Christmas, and here we are, staring down 2019. I realized that if I didn’t act quickly, it would be another week before I get to see you all on the radio, since I’ll be taking off…

    Well, two weeks in, and Woody Radio (www.woodyradio.com) hasn’t yet figured out how to ban me from their airwaves, so I got to do a second show. And you know what–just to be a little bit bold and naughty, I snuck in some overtime! Yes–after I hit the 3-hour mark, I stayed on a little…
